The
Los Angeles Field Division of DEA is hosting a conference for Police
Chiefs and other senior managers of state and local law enforcement
agencies throughout southern California. This conference is designed
to enhance coordination in the region and to provide training relative
to the most current methods of identifying, investigating and prosecuting
significant drug money-laundering organizations.
DEA retained the
services of Robert Mazur to
lecture conference attendees concerning advanced techniques used
to identify, infiltrate and prosecute international money laundering
organizations that service drug cartels. During his presentations,
Mr. Mazur will address the
willful participation of certain international financial institutions
in global money laundering schemes. In addition, he will review
the mechanics of various commerce related money laundering schemes,
including the Black Market Peso Exchange and the “Reintegros”
System, both of which are extensively employed by Colombian and
other South American based drug cartels.
